"I use an integrative approach rooted in the evidence-based principles of Mind-Body Medicine, which focus on the interaction between mind and body and the powerful ways in which emotional, cognitive, social and spiritual factors can affect health. This practice is based on the principle that mind and body are interwoven, that any changes in the body can result in psychological change, and any change in the mind will result in a physiological change. Within this framework, psychotherapeutic methods from various schools of psychology may be incorporated as appropriate."

"I bring over 30 years of experience to my psychotherapy practice based in Lafayette, Colorado. From substance abuse to relationship counseling, stress management to anxiety and depression, grief counseling to aging, my goal is to help you focus on what is happening in the here and now, respecting influences and events of the past, yet always with a vision towards confident preparation for the future."

"I am specialized as a marriage and family therapist, substance abuse counselor and I am a certified chaplain, comfortable with faith, grief, and end of life issues. I use a family systems, solutions-focused, and purpose-driven approach with faith integration if desired. My work is informed by life experiences as a military pilot, software engineering director, father of four, and husband of 30 years. With a special needs son and another who battled addictions, my heart knows the struggles of families and parenting. When you work with me you can expect a professional blend of empathy, expertise and flexibility to achieve your goals."

"As a male therapist I specialize in working with men and the challenges we face in today's complex world. I personally bring a combination of military, corporate and counseling experience into my work that allows me to relate to men in a way that is hard to find in other settings in life."

"As a therapist, I bring warmth, kindness, and a sense of humor in combination with results-focused expertise. As my client, you can expect me to listen attentively, give you consistent feedback, and offer structured methods geared specifically to your needs and goals. In the process of our work together, you can also expect to gain a better understanding of your personal style and a deeper appreciation of your individual strengths.

"I have many years experience working with a broad range of life's challenges. Together we identify approaches that are individualized to fit you and your issues. We work together to bring about change and find ways to hold these changes in place over time. My goal is to honor you and to accept you in the place you present. Our relationship is an important part of this therapeutic process. My role is to use my expertise to guide and support you through the sessions as we find the best path to take in your healing."

"Are you feeling overwhelmed by emotions, PTSD, trauma, or painful experiences from the past? Are you seeking support for chronic illness or pain management? I specialize in body psychotherapy, which can help you connect with the healing resources within. Body psychotherapy is helpful for managing pain, releasing trauma, and feeling more at home in your body. I have a gentle, compassionate, and insightful presence. It is my priority to provide a space where you feel safe, held, and supported."

"I understand that life can have some bumps along the way. Often people need help sorting through things whether they feel they are in crisis or not. Life can be challenging and counseling is a helpful way to see the bigger picture in order to find what you are looking for. Personal growth and understanding who you are can help you regain control and it allows you to take ownership of your life. I work with adults, teens and couples struggling with self-esteem, depression, anxiety, relationship strain, life transitions, boundaries and other areas of life that can be challenging."

"My practice is focused on the integration of grief and experiences into your life by using person-centered, humanistic, existential, and contemporary counseling theories serving individuals, families and groups."

"Hello! I would like to help you earn your supervision hours towards your LCSW or LPC! I have 20+ years of experience as a social worker/psychotherapist and I am currently specializing in training and supervising therapists who are new to the field and working towards licensure. My style is flexible and trauma informed. My focus is on your growth as a therapist, how to take care of yourself while you take care of others, and risk management. The therapeutic alliance is the key to success. I can teach you how to build this with each and every client."

In our work together, you will learn to re-wire automatic thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that are getting in the way of your happiness. I offer individual and couples therapy, using an eclectic approach, including body psychotherapy, EMDR Therapy, and Brainspotting."

"My counseling practice is about helping release people from burdens weighing them down so they can live freely, develop fully and enjoy their lives. Whatever forms a burden takes on (identity confusion, family history, relationship failure, emotional instability etc.) my goal is to help exchange an old mindset for a new and healthy one. My method is to help clients build tools and learn to practice self-awareness, emotional stability, relational connection and more. I myself have participated in counseling and that is why I became a therapist, because if someone wants to be free, they can be."

"Life transitions often displace and bewilder us. Perhaps you are moving across the world, graduating from college, marrying, divorcing, or welcoming a new baby into your life. These moments have the power both to uproot and to transform us. You may be wrestling with your self-esteem, identity, sexuality, shame, and grief. In counseling we will listen for your authentic voice, explore your story, and create a safe place for you to make sense of your life."

"I believe in the healing power of unconditional presence and consider each meeting with you an opportunity for deep listening, empathic connection and collaborative growth. I blend knowledge and training in mindfulness and transpersonal/somatic psychology, with intuitive guidance and spiritual support. I'll challenge you to connect with your innate wisdom, listen to your body, and fearlessly meet whatever is holding you back, so you can find the clarity to evolve beyond it. Visit my webpage and schedule a FREE 30 Minute Consult to determine if we're a good fit."

"Do you feel misunderstood or unheard in your relationship? Do discussions escalate into conflict quickly? Relationships with ourselves, our partners, and our families are lifelong journeys that require navigating peaks and valleys. Sometimes in relationships we get stuck in patterns of interaction or feeling and in our work together, we can explore your unique path and identify strengths, encourage resiliency, and inspire personal and relational growth to change old patterns of interaction and develop new patterns of connection."

"One of the hardest lessons in life is accepting that it is full of unkowns. We can't possibly foresee the future and we easily ruminate on the past. We are sometimes born into challenges and other times, we enter into transitions we never wished or thought possible. Then there's just growing up - it's hard being human. This can leave us feeling out of control and in a place of emotional suffering. I offer a safe space for clients to process difficult and traumatic experiences. My background in stress management and mindfulness provide empowering healing opportunities for clients."

"You are my ideal client - searching for the right fit, anticipating help and reading to find that fit. Family and relational conflict, including teens and parents, couples, divorcing couples, co-parenting, grandparents and step parenting are all areas of expertise for me. The stress pressuring relationships today has complicated family dynamics; financial insecurities, tenuous job stability and the interference of outside influences. When there are more profound medical, behavioral, financial, or developmental stress, my 25 years of experience both as a provider and a supervisor have given me insight into both usual and unusual personal and interpersonal relationship issues."

"I'm guessing that in many areas of your life you are functioning quite well, even thriving. On the other hand you may be simultaneously experiencing a lack of fulfillment and a feeling of emptiness in another area(s) of your life. Symptoms of this may be anxiety, mood problems (including depression), addiction, problems in relationships or behavioral issues. You can choose the pain of stagnation or the discomfort of growth. If you choose growth, you will experience greater joy, peace, connectedness, and purpose. My purpose is to facilitate your growth and therapy is a powerful tool for your transformation."

"I love being able to support children, families, and adults in their healing process, and am inspired by each person who is bravely willing to start the journey. I provide psychotherapy and art therapy to children and teens, helping individuals resolve issues related to trauma, depression, and anxiety. Art and play are the natural languages of children. I provide a safe environment for children to express their thoughts and feelings, helping parents understand what is troubling their child, and how to support them more effectively."

"Life isn't easy. Maybe you feel a vague sense that something is not quite right. Or things might be so overwhelming that it feels like your inner world is collapsing and your external world is turned upside down. Perhaps from the outside things look ok, yet on the inside there is a deep pain, or you feel dead inside. Maybe you are living in the grips of what seems like an endless place of despair and trauma. It is possible to move past stuckness and the cycle of yuckyness to a place beyond survival that allows release, growth, joy and a sense of purpose."
